Question

$$4 \frac{ x }{ 5 } -3=7 \frac{ x }{ 9 } +2$$

Solve for x

$x=225$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by $45$, the least common multiple of $5,9$.

$$36x-135=35x+90$$

Subtract $35x$ from both sides.

$$36x-135-35x=90$$

Combine $36x$ and $-35x$ to get $x$.

$$x-135=90$$

Add $135$ to both sides.

$$x=90+135$$

Add $90$ and $135$ to get $225$.

$$x=225$$
